I just got depressed. This is not the best news I have heard in a long time. Don't they know I'm a collector. I need to collect dammit!

I guess I will focus my focus on the Sun box.

Never say never .....Mr. Sillerman, Todd Morgan,Jack Soden and EPE may be well indeed in the planning stages of a footage buyout from Turner. There's no doubt in my mind that Mr. Sillerman would love to get his hands on the TTWII and EOT master negatives. If there's a will....there's a way. Three years ago, I thought Aloha and '68 comeback would never see the light of day in the form of a multi-DVD format release. Like I said, never say never....especially in the Elvis world.

moodyblue1,

My thoughts exactly.

There is more to come - definitely!

I don't think, that any TTWII footage will be released soon, too. But because Elvis hasn't recorded much since his death, they will release the filmed concerts. If the EOT SE will sell (and I really believe they will produce a SE someday), there will be not much left. And because they think EIC does harm the king's image, the only chance to make money out of the 1970's Elvis is to release a complete show and maybe some rehearsals as a bonus. It may take some time, but I'm pretty sure, that it will come.
